That's a good one! I have:
Cheltenham
Bristol City
Swindon
Newcastle
Cardiff
Crystal Palace
Bradford
Norwich
Sheffield Wednesday
I'm sure there are other Robins out there but I can't think of any but the top three. Also, I think Brighton - but I can't think what it is as I know Torquay are the Gulls.

I know it's not good etiquette to reply to your own post, but looks like I got this one almost spot onReliant Robin wrote:A Harry Pell screamer is going wide and high just to the right of the goal; it hits a low flying seagull directly in the midriff, drops down onto the back of the bewildered 'keepers head and falls behind him into the net.
As the 'keeper bends down to retrieve the injured seagull from the back of the net, the ball has dropped right onto the goal line near the corner flag, and is motionless. The linesman doesn't flag for ball out of play, and Billy Waters is first to react - he gets to the ball, drives it hard into the 6 yard box, where it strikes the 'keepers @rse still bent facing outwards, it thunders out to the edge of the 18 yard line (the ball that is, not the 'keepers @rse) where Dan Wright is prowling. Wrighty strikes it first time on the volley straight into the bottom left hand corner of the net for the most unlikely goal of the season and a 1-0 CTFC win, to keep us in the Football League.
The seagull recovers in time to do a lap of honour with the Players.
You read it here first.
There were seagulls hovering over the ground during the game, Wrighty got the only goal, and Carson made a complete arse of himself and got soundly booed (by our fans)
